Sho Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Playing with Kirkland Signature Golf Balls has been a delight! Not only do they offer a fantastic feel off the club, but their spin on the greens adds an extra layer of excitement to each shot. And let's not forget the best part – the peace of mind knowing that if one goes astray or gets a little roughed up, it's not a major hit to the wallet. .

CommitToHit Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 After years of playing ProV1x getting a discount as a TPI expert. This is the year is switch it up and test out the Maxfli Tour X! Even with my Titleist discount, the Maxfli 4 dozen box from Dick's is TOO GOOD of value. Reviews have been great, and garage launch monitor testing has been solid thus far.

PrismFlopper Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 (edited) I play the Vice Pro Plus as my standard gamer ball, but when I play par 3s or even sometimes the par 4s then i usually play a kirkland signature. This i just due to the fact that on the 3s and 4s i play alot of wedges and have found myself ruining the balls with the wedge bite. Found playing a full 60deg wedge just tears the ball apart. So simply being cheap. I keep TP5x or ProV1x when im playing the better courses but afraid to lose them so they usually just sit in the golf stand Edited March 23 by PrismFlopper jbubski and Rob Person 2 Quote Been playing for about 2 years in total. Winter breaks and a 6month period when I got sick. Starting to feel like myself again and recently played a “okay” round. I currently have custom fit Cobra LTDx irons/wedges, a Vokey 60(cause my short game has been the best part of my game, and a Maverick 9 deg. Driver. Driving is the worst part of my game so My 4 iron usually takes alot of the long game abuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZackS Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 Looks like I will be playing these since I stumbled on them with a 2 for $70 deal at an expo today.

LGreen29 Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 I decided to play the Vice Pro Plus based on MyGolfSpy's review for high performing budget golf balls. I played 45 holes last weekend in St George, Utah and felt like the balls exceeded my expectations - especially when almost driving the green at the beautiful par 4 13th at Sand Hollow Golf Resort. I am looking forward to improving with Vice Pro Pluses this year!

Moe79 Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 In my bag right now is a mix of Titleist ProV1s, TruFeels, Callaway Supersofts, and Kirkland Gen2s.

G-Ram Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 Left dash ProV1x for me. I tend to play with a LOT of spin, so need the reduction off the driver. No downside is, I still back up irons on the greens with them as well. Lots of hold for me. They really motor in the summer, where our temps get into the 40's *C Some heat softens them up a little. Leave one sitting in the sun for 20 mins before you get to the Long drive hole on men's night Bought two boxes of the new Chrome Tour. Tired a sleeve, all 3 scuffed beyond use almost after holes. I'll be giving them away with a club build etc lol Rob Person and William P 2 Quote we got a pool and a pond... the pond would be good for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lostcause105 Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Just started playing with the maxfli tour last week, seeing solid results so far. Feels good off the driver face, good penetrating ball flight, sticks well to the greens (when I hit them right). Overall pretty pleased with the ball and the price point!

injectedcutty Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 So I usually play the Vice Pro Plus or the Tour B RX, but I've been testing a couple different options out since Walmart had some clearance stuff last month. I picked up a box of Taylormade soft response, and tour response. Also snagged a previous year box of Tour B RXS to try and see if they really are different than thr RX. I fall into the mid swing speed category, and I can truly say the soft and Tour response perform really well. So much that on pretty much identical drives yesterday both a soft response and RXS went 289yds. If I have time and nobody behind me, the 17th hole of my home course usually plays 400yds and is a perfect test hole for various balls. I'll hit 4 or 5, sometimes more just to get results. I have found the left dash ProV1x and regular RB fly furthest. I really like the Maxfli tour also, so I'll keep those in rotation with the RB as th RB is what I'm fitted into.

Wheelieb Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 I can’t remember where I read it, but playing the same ball was found to garner better results for the year. If you aren’t going to play the same, use ones that are similar in their makeup. This will help keep spin and flight close to what you are playing that year to not mess you up. But again, I’m not sure where I read this at Rob Person 1 Quote Callaway Paradym AI Smoke Max 9* with Tensei AV Blue 55 PXG 5 and 7 woods with Mitsubishi Diamana Shafts Mizuno Pro 225 5-GW with Dynamic Gold S300 shafts Taylormade Hi-Toe 54 and 58 degree wedges Ping Prime Tyne 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
